Flag Football


Over the last 3 years, I have played flag football. Our team is consisted from a bunch of kids that are my girlfriend’s brother’s friends. I started to play only because they needed a few extra guys because the team absolutely sucked and people started to quit. So my first game I played, was back in 2010, in the fall. I was a bigger kid back then and wasn’t fast but I could catch. Lets just say me and defense didn’t get along to great because sometimes I would cover really fast receivers and get burnt! But on the other side of the ball, I was unstoppable, I dropped nothing. Despite, I only played one game that year, it was a playoff game, and we got our ass kicked, I was glad to return in 2011 in the spring.

In the spring, I came back in much better shape and excited to play. We had a lot of new players who seemed to be good. Some problems down the stretch with not everyone showing up hurt us badly. We played some great games when our full squad was there and our record didn’t show how good we were. We finished again losing in the first round of the playoffs but we had a lot of expectations for the next year.

Which leads me into the present. Right now we are approaching our second week of play. In our first week, we won 34-0. A complete dominate performance from the whole team. We have a new look and a lot of new personal. Our whole team last week played shut down football, and I had a big interception that turned the tables over leading to a score. Hopefully this season will be one to remember for us. We are good this year, maybe the best, but we can only prove it on the field.

TEAM AMERICA!
